Can you finally do it without a dryer? Here’s a trick that will definitely come in handy! We’ve all experienced the experience of having to leave in an hour, and our favorite pants or the only shirt we feel comfortable in are still hanging on the dryer, damp and soggy. It’s even worse in winter, because rain, snow, and frost make drying virtually impossible outside, and the air inside quickly becomes damp. Hanging them on the radiator seems like the most obvious solution, but it not only wastes energy but also increases humidity in the home, which in the long run can lead to mold growth.
Few people know that our traditional washing machines also have a sort of “hidden” drying function that we can use at any time in an emergency. It doesn’t require expensive accessories; all it takes is a bit of physics and a completely ordinary bathroom gadget. This method can be a lifesaver if you need to quickly dry one or two items and don’t want to spend hours tangling around a damp clothesline in your apartment.
The trick is to increase spin efficiency. A washing machine only spins at idle speed, but it can’t do anything about the moisture trapped between the fibers. This is where a simple but effective solution comes in.
